you can see the login screen for my nextcloud instance at https://nextcloud.olliespeople.place and the tiddlywiki at https://olliespeople.place. The tiddlywiki html and image files are accessible inside the nextcloud instance so I can upload more files through nextcloud. All files are being served to the internet by an nginx webserver.
Everything is being hosted on a vps from buyvm.net. Nextcloud needs about 200mb of RAM so you could easily host and serve everything with a 5$ plan. There is a learning curve to self hosting since you are installing and configuring the network and software especially if your not used to some work on the command line but there are a ton of resources and the result is more than worth it. I have done this through my home network as well using a free address through dynds as well. The port forwarding can be tricky but it is very doable.
